It's an image file like the JPEG or PNG file formats. But it can also support animations, as in images changing quickly like a flipbook. They cannot have sound because of the limitations of the file format.

Their rise in popularity

Like memes, they’re useful for sharing emotions, ideas and jokes. Websites like Gyfcat, and GIPHY make it easy to create and share GIFs. The services these sites provide are integrated into software like Viber, Twitter, and Facebook Messenger, including your phone’s keyboard — they’re becoming easier to quickly insert, like emojis or stickers.

How do you share one on the forum?

Just grab the URL and paste it into the thread insert image field, then select INSERT.

When you hover your mouse over a GIF, in the bottom corner some text should appear, which you can then click on.

If you are on a phone, just touch the bottom corner and it should take you to the source website where you can find the URL.

Note that you may find an error if you use the "short link" when inserting the URL, so you just should go with the normal URL.

For example, on gipthy.com, first you would click here:

And then you would copy this link below, not the short link.

Sometimes you have to just grab the URL from the address bar at the top of the screen if there is nothing displaying that allows you to get the link.

Note that not all GIFs will properly/correctly embed and work on the forum. sometimes you will get a X icon image when they don't. There's nothing you can do about this, but pick a different one! X Example:

Well it's all right, even if you're old and gray. Well it's all right, you still got something to say.
Well it's all right, remember to live and let live. Well it's all right, the best you can do is forgive.Traveling Wilburys

Collected Consciousness

Question: How do you choose the higher vibrational energies in any given situation? "You choose by taking the high road, instead of engaging in the same argument that you’ve had several times with the same person. You choose by spending more time in nature and putting away your electronic devices. You choose by being true to yourself and the impulse that you have coming to you from within, rather than just doing what everyone expects you to do, or what your parents did." Quote from the Arcturian Council, posted December 5, 2019​
